Please give a clear explanation why "-d" has to be 6, "-r" 7 and "-t" 8, that can be used by developers as a memory aid to help them write new tests using the helper.

Or justify why the developers have to memorize such a meaningless correspondence, if there is no any good reason.

Alternatively, you can stop abusing the word "elegant". It is not a synonym to "what I wrote" ;-).
